Lithuania is an appealing destination for some Danish travelers, offering a unique range of attractions within the Baltic region. While it may not attract the same volume of tourists as larger European destinations, it has the potential to captivate a segment of the 3.2 million Danes who travel abroad annually.
Lithuania is generally considered safe for tourists, although it is not as safe as Denmark. In terms of safety while walking alone at night, Lithuania ranks 24th out of 40 countries, compared to Denmark's 6th place. According to the Global Peace Index, Lithuania is ranked 31st out of 160 countries, again lower than Denmark, which is 8th. When looking at crime statistics, Lithuania has a higher murder rate of 2.6 per 100,000 people, compared to Denmark's 0.8. For female murders, the rates are 1.5 in Lithuania versus 0.5 in Denmark. In terms of organized crime, Lithuania has slightly better scores than Denmark in some areas, such as mafia groups and human smuggling, but Denmark generally has lower scores in most categories, indicating a lower level of organized crime. Overall, while Lithuania is relatively safe, tourists from Denmark should remain aware of their surroundings and take standard precautions.
